Merge branch 'x86-efi-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 EFI changes from Ingo Molnar:
"Main changes:
- Add support for earlyprintk=efi which uses the EFI framebuffer.
Very useful for debugging boot problems.
- EFI stub support for large memory maps (more than 128 entries)
- EFI ARM support - this was mostly done by generalizing x86 <-> ARM
platform differences, such as by moving x86 EFI code into
drivers/firmware/efi/ and sharing it with ARM.
- Documentation updates
- misc fixes"
